MAP: Future History Timelines impacting The Death of Distance (1st worldwide networked) Generation 1984-2024
MAP is simply a secnesetting project which invites everyone to plug and play links that most concern them. If through media and open spaces, we are to search out and charter the future potential of the human race, why not interconnect such future history insight inquiries as:
A) literature review and catalogue of open surveys potentially needed to keep check of globalsiation's bearings. We welcome timeline inserts. Our intent is to bring transparancy and diversity at every coordinate of our planet to debates on whether the globalisation that will be spinning exponentially by 2024 is the one most likely to sustain the most people.
B) Relentless curiosity Q&A around where does economics fit into the big picture of what futures compound around gloabl and local market sectors most vital to serving human needs.
C) Talk, Walk, Talk, Walk... until a consensus emerges on values and overall aims capable of uniting humanity:
cross-culturally
beyond one dimensional politics of left versus right.
D) Why do this now 2006-2010
D WHY Now 2006-2010
LAST CALL? In her commonwealth message ending the semi-decade 2000-2005 : Queen Elizabeth asked aloud : IS HUMANITY TURNING ON ITSELF? There was a first wave of questioning as to whether humanity was up for Making (Systemised) Poverty History that was voiced in choruse by leaders from North (eg Tony Blair Commission for Africa) and South (Nelson Mandela).
Back in 1984: my father Norman Macrae , a leading economist and future historian for death of distnace wrote: 2005 will be the year when man wakes up to its greatest risk being discrepancies in incomes and expectations between rich an poor nations? His book the 2024 report was the third and future trilogy that reviewed 180 years since the word Entrepreneur was coined and 140 years of writings in The Economist, which Scots will find was founded by James Wilson who in modern vocabulary was a social entrpreneur world champion. Most of the timelines so far verifiable in the 2024 have systemically come into view as great challenges of our times. For example, President Bush's 2006 State of the Union speech that included the challenge : end US addiction to Petroleum Economics has been stated to have been generated by death-of-distance brainstorming carried out by 20 leaders appointed as Gathering Stormers at nap.edu (Charlie Rose, PBS tv January 2006). Maps work a magic that systemises more than numbers or words alone can do when they are so simple to use that everyone knows they are invited to plug and play. For the same of simplicity and transparency, be aware that future historians (synonyms Naisbitt's megatreds, Drucker's Social Ecologist... and many branchs of the Entrepreenur family tree including in 1978 Drayton's Social Entrepreneur and around the same time J Gifford Pincot's Intrapreneur) map back 2 opposite scenarios in the knowledge that systemic compound consquences a generation out are more likely to be spiralling on one or other of the extreme trajectories than some more stable average.
A THE NEW MAP BACK FROM THE FUTURE OF 2024
A1 www Networking being the greatest double revolution in human connectivity: of communications (even greater than the printing press) and of how people transprt their productivities (even greater than the invention of the steam engine that begot the industrial revolution) was always going to propagate the most extraordinary chnage waves one generation around the world had ever experienced. The primary work global vilage conversations should be transparently debating between 2005-2010 (if Norman's serial forecast continue to be confirmed) involved changing economics and changing combinatorial mixes of media to action learn not just spectate idols. If we change these everyone can win-win-win : ie reducing systemic poverty does not need to cost richer people a cent- why should chnaging the world from one where only 4 billion people are born to have a chnace of being productive to all 6+ billion being born so to connect cause anyone to lose out if we web trust-flows around a common map? Why not develop relationship permissions (aka reduce digital divides, minimise degrees of separation of life-critical human rights knowhow) so that every global village be empowered to be a
world champion in changemaking what people most need to collaborate around to sustain that's coordinates exchanges with the world's web?
Parallel lines of inquiry include:
A2 The Einstein-Gandhi view
A3 The Science Fiction emerges into Sciene Faction View
A4 Final examination views of reconciling conflicts if we are to harmonise a higher order system that the ones whose rules the 20th C lived with.
A5 Iteratively, recursively reviewing the entrepreneurial literature in the systemic sense that the word was coined in the 1800s; and which The Economist was founded to mediate between systems of social health and business wealth by James Wilson.
A6 You tell us
Parallel action learning responses include:
A99 Microfinance
1 2A98
Changemaking mosaics so that interlocal communities can exchange their critical contexts valuations with global market sectors visions of and investments in progress interactively (such broadband dialogues action learning like a double helix in a way that 20th C broadcast age could never imagine doing)
C) It seems to us that the New York dynamic duo of ex National Presidents - Mary Robinson Ireland (now Ethical Global Initiative) and Bill Clinton (now Clinton Global Initiative -local project based) - have set 2 aims that 99% of 6 billion beings could happily and productively agree with investing in and moving
earth and water (aka
heaven & hell,
society & economics ,
servant & leadership emotion & intelligence goodwill & money man & machine...) to transform. Do you wish to state alternatives:
No human dies before their time
